KY. The Clark family has been in the Red Angus business since 2006. The Coyote Hills
cattle are heavily inﬂ uenced by Buffalo Creek and Red Hill genetics.
BUFFALO CREEK RED ANGUS (BUF) – The name Buffalo Creek is forever synonymous with
quality Red Angus cattle. After the Buffalo Creek dispersal, Gini Chase asked if we would
manage some of her personal cows. We were excited she would send these cows to
Red Hill. We enjoy working with Gini, as it is always good to get wisdom from a master
breeder. Jack and Gini have been great supporters of our program, and we are honored
to have these cows at Red Hill.

they have A.I. bred some of their cows to Simmental bulls. Johnny and Sharon strive to
produce cattle that thrive on intensively grazed fescue based pastures, as well as have
great maternal ability, grow well and have excellent carcass merit.
